Abstract
A hearing aid system is disclosed that automates selection or creation of hearing profiles using a dynamically customizable vivo adaptare audiogram. The hearing aid and a smart device communicate via a programming interface, where the smart device runs processor-executable instructions for a listening intelligence and frequency enhancement function. An artificial intelligence module evaluates ambient sound, compares it to stored hearing profiles specifying frequency adjustments, and either selects one or merges multiple profiles to form a new profile. The chosen profile is activated in real time, with the option to store it for later use. Available modes include “Test and Store,” capturing ambient sound to refine a profile, and real-time adaptation, which continuously applies incremental changes without repeated user input.
